I think that this is completely amazing and very inspirational. It is good to know that people out there are willing to overcome their disabilities in order to obtain their goals. :)

That is so great! Its good to know that if you set your mind to something, nothing (not even blindness) can stop you from reaching your dreams.
I think that this is a really cool story.

That is very impressive, I can't believe that even with her handicap she was able to run that fast. I'm sure this is very inspiring for other blind people.
Wow, that is amazing!! I bet everyone is so proud of her:) She has to have a ton of confidence for this to happen! Good for her:)
